aespa’s Winter says she is not an optimistic person; turns to dogs and gelato for comfort

In a 'GQ Korea' interview, where aespa’s Winter was chosen as GQ’s ‘Woman of the Year’, she reflects upon 2024, her busiest year yet.

Winter opened up that she is not a very optimistic person by nature, as she thinks it opens one up for more disappointment. She is more at ease with a realistic mindset, while also trying not to veer into pessimistic thoughts.

Winter also expressed her love for dogs and gelato, which she named as the two things that helps her unwind. Whenever she is feeling down, she watches dog videos. She also looks forward to having gelato after work, and recommends the flavors pistachio, dalgona, rice, and tomato.
